I would want to see legitimate flow numbers on them on a known flow bench. I had merlin vr's before and flow wise they sucked,especially on the exhaust side until exstensive porting,Smitty

I would be looking for some aluminum heads to put on a 588 sc engine. You will need the aluminum to take full advantage of the supercharger.
If you feel you must run cast iron heads, I would probably look for a different head if you want to make the most power you could.
